Forestburgh man indicted for deaths tied to heroin

MONTICELLO — A Forestburgh man has been indicted in the sale of a deadly brand of heroin believed to have been responsible in four overdose deaths this year.

Jason Bolden, 45, was indicted Wednesday in Sullivan County on two counts of criminal sale and one count of criminal possession of a controlled substance, and misdemeanor endangering the welfare of a child.

Bolden was arrested on Oct. 21 in the Burger King parking lot off Route 42. Court papers say he had 13 bags of heroin stamped “Last Dragon.” The brand was linked to the deaths of two Fallsburg men, ages 60 and 27, a 27-year-old Rock Hill man and a 33-year-old Monticello woman.
